5 There was in the dayes of Herode the kyng of Iurie, a certaine priest, named Zacharias, of the course of Abia, & his wyfe was of the daughters of Aaron, & her name was Elizabeth. 6 They were both ryghteous before God, and walked in all the lawes and ordinaunces of the Lorde, that no man coulde fynde fault with them. 7 And they had no chylde, because that Elizabeth was barren: and they both were nowe well stricken in age. 8 And it came to passe, that when Zacharie executed the priestes office before God, as his course came, 9 Accordyng to ye custome of the priestes office, his lot was to burne incence, whe he went into the temple of the Lorde.
